See "Going Upriver," the movie about Kerry, today in major theaters

[genius]

Help to make this a box office hit. I haven't seen anything on DU about the movie. It is supposed to be very favorable and could help swing the election if enough people see it. If anyone here has seen it yet, post a review.

In Orange County, it's showing at the Irvine 21 (the most popular theater) and the Orange Enctury 25 (where Democrats get police escorts out of the theater). It's also showing in L.A. I don't have the schedule for elsewhere.

2. What does that have to do with the movie? I heard it was about heroism

on the swift boats.

3. i'm sure it is, I'm just saying they picked a bad title

Going Upriver first made me think of "going up the river", which is an idiom for going to jail.

4. i agree. when i first heard of the film and the title...

I thought the swiftliars were behind it. that didn't last after i saw the photo. :)

5. I forgot that that was another meaning for the term.

You're right. It is a bad title. Do you know of anyone who has seen it yet?
